El Al Wants To Make Sure Your Pets Are Getting Plenty Of Travel Love
Israeli airline El Al is very proud of having a pet frequent flyer club, where your dog or cat will get a free trip for every three round-trips they survive. What's more, El Al has been kind enough to offer us some tips on flying with our pets, and speaking as people who've never done it, we think they sound like good ideas.
The most important tips seem to be to exercise your pet shortly before the flight, but feed him a few hours beforehand to avoid a poor air-sick doggy. El Al also suggests getting the appropriate pet carrier far enough in advance that your pet can get used to the contraption before they're stuck in it on a flight.
Clipping your animal's nails is also recommended (El Al fears they could get hooked on the carrier door; we're not so sure and are not going to try to clip our cat's claws). And the nicest advice: "Give your pet plenty of love before and after the flight". Of course, if El Al really meant this they'd let us fly with our cat on our lap, but perhaps the other passengers might have something to say about that.
